Mexican Democracy

Happy Vacation. I hope you all are enjoying your holiday break and time away from school. Just to let you know I will be checking my email over vacation in case anybody has any questions regarding the Book Review.

In this blog I would like to see you discuss what Mexico needs to do to in order to defeat the Drug Cartels. Is this a losing battle or can the Mexican government get this under control and promote great democratic opportunities for it's people?

Happy New Year!!!
Mr. Pratt

I apologize for the delay in posting this. My internet access was down at home for the weekend and I just gained access to the website. Plus, as you know, I was out today so if you need an extension to Wednesday that is fine. My apologies for the delay.

Parliamentarianism vs. Presidentialism

The article for Unit 3 is a little difficult to read coming off the copier. Good news, I was able to find a link to the article online, however in order to get this you have to gain FREE access to your local library. Just click on the link below, scroll down, and follow the steps. It should not be a problem, any issues please let me know.
Good Luck
